'''Dragon's Breath''' is the [[Wizard Monkey (BTD6)|Wizard Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''.

'''Dragon's Breath''' is the [[Wizard Monkey (BTD6)|Wizard Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Wizard Monkey a new flame attack, which deals 2 [[damage]] with 3 [[pierce]], and has an [[Attack speed|attack cooldown]] of 0.135 seconds. Flames cannot damage [[Purple Bloon (BTD6)|Purple Bloons]]. Flames apply a burn damage-over-time effect which deals 1 damage every 1.5 seconds, and lasts for 3.1 seconds. With {{BTD6 mk|Flame Jet}}, projectile speed is increased by 50%.

This upgrade improves Wizard Monkey's [[Fireball (BTD6)|fireball attack]], allowing it to fire 3 fireballs per shot instead of 1, spread in a 60 degree angle. It also increases fireball damage from 1 to 3, and increases explosion radius and projectile size. This upgrade also improves the [[Wall of Fire (BTD6)|wall of fire attack]], reducing its cooldown from 6.5 to 4.5 seconds. It also increases wall of fire's pierce from 10 to 20, and improves its tick rate and pierce refresh interval from 0.15 to 0.1 seconds.

In addition to crosspathing benefits from [[Wall of Fire (BTD6)|Wall of Fire]], Dragon's Breath receives the following crosspath benefits:

*[[Guided Magic (BTD6)|Guided Magic]] doubles lifespan of the fiery breath and allows it to ignore obstacles, but [[Arcane Blast (BTD6)|Arcane Blast]] doesn't affect it.

* [[Intense Magic (BTD6)|Intense Magic]] grants +2 pierce (total of 5) to the fiery breath, and double projectile speed (125 to 250).

==Strategy==

Dragon's Breath is an all-round damage tower that performs similarly against blimps and normal Bloons, carrying the early-game but with low range and pierce going into mid-game. It works well on easier maps, but struggles on harder maps compared to more specialized towers for either type of Bloon. The fire breath deals most of its damage against single targets, while Wall of Fire contributes more damage against bloon rushes. Dragon's Breath does replace the Wall of Fire more often compared to lower tiers, limiting the tower's weakness at the start of rounds. The triple fireballs offer bursts that work well with its other attacks, but still too slow and inconsistent for reliable grouped damage.

It does not synergize well enough with {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}} to justify the buff for its cost, unless specifically playing around the Walls of Fire. 0-3-2 is the more common crosspath, as it is much stronger for the low pierce breath attack and gives camo and extra range, while 1-3-0 or 2-3-0 have more control over Wall of Fire, and can have two Walls of Fire active at once for extra damage thanks to the longer duration. 1-3-0 is enough if only wanting the improved Wall of Fire, while 2-3-0 can be worth it for the +1 damage triple fireballs.
